I started just by rubbing her tummy with one of the small bristled attachments for a week or so.<BR/><BR/>Then I added the tubes to it. Then I attached those to the vaccuum so it was just sitting there during tummy rubs.<BR/><BR/>Then I started using the brush all over--tummy, back, sides.<BR/><BR/>Next I attached everything I had to get distance from the vaccuum and put the vacuum outside a partially shut door.<BR/><BR/>Started brushing her and then had hubby turn on the power. She jumped but didn't want to give up the tummy rubbing. Then we opened the door.<BR/><BR/>Now, if you start the vaccuum cleaner up, she's right on top of you waiting for her close up. LOL! You can vacuum dirt and hair off.

I have two cats, and yesterday I was just walking through the house picking up 'cat bits'. The one cat seems to drop little clumps like he's putting out cat seeds, or something. I'd love to de-fur them both, as much as possible. <BR/>I use a sort of curry-comb thing right now, but it doesn't seem to get very deep.Michele Haufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255612473985897103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27662400.post-2144046157577948282008-07-14T09:07:00.000-05:002008-07-14T09:07:00.000-05:00Oh, I SO need this for my yellow lab.

I use a shedding blade, too, but I'll try one of these. <BR/><BR/>What I really want is something that would not only get the fur off, but capture it in a bag at the same time.
